    About Kathryn

    Kathryn Stocks is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin who focuses on supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, and low self-esteem. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and aims to help clients build motivation and confidence for change.

    She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about what's worrying them. Sessions are aimed at helping clients name what matters to them and take small steps toward better daily life. Kathryn encourages honesty and curiosity rather than pressure or shame.

    Her background includes three years of professional practice helping people work through family conflict, relationship problems, and issues tied to self-worth. She also addresses concerns such as depression, isolation, and life purpose. Kathryn draws on a mix of practical talking approaches and structured tools to support progress.

    Her clinical methods include Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based work, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. These approaches are used to help people notice patterns, try different responses, and choose actions that match their goals.

    Many clients come with practical problems like communication breakdowns, blended family adjustments, or struggles with guilt and shame. Kathryn supports them in taking manageable steps, building clearer boundaries, and finding ways to reconnect with what matters most.

  2. How her approaches translate to online therapy

    Kathryn uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change and to boost readiness for taking action. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting, and helping clients set goals that matter to them.

    She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts and choose values-based actions instead of getting stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at patterns in close relationships and to try different ways of connecting that reduce conflict and isolation.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kathryn will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She views treatment as flexible and will adjust techniques based on what is most helpful.

    Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Many people find remote work helps them maintain continuity of care while juggling family, work, or school responsibilities.
